Summary

This study tested whether a botulinum toxin injection (like Botox) can reduce pain in people with tennis elbow that hasn't improved after 6 months of standard care. 61 adults received either the injection or a placebo (fake injection). The main goal was to measure pain levels 3 months after the injection. The study aimed to clarify conflicting results from earlier research.
